Quote From: vettern

I am an American. This young lady is spoiled and loved the idea of being idependent from her parents. she chose to go to the Gaza strip to live with this young man. just as she is a young women, he is a young man. If this had been an american boy, would there had been as much interest. this young man loved this girl, in their country committment and loyalty means something different than what most spoiled, young white american teens have an understanding of. We in america are so quick to condemn the life styles and beliefs of other countries and humans.  This was a game to her, in my opinion. I think she thought there would be a lot of money attatched to this situation.  maybe, just maybe this young man really did love her. remember, we have different values and ideas in america. In his culture if a promise to marry was given, then thats just what it is. why is that so bad, if he controls his wife, that happens in a lot of cultures. instead of saying this young person is misguided, he, the young man took all the heat and was treated like a terrorist. Dr. Phil floored me when he said "find a nice American boy", did i sence some prejudice???  well never the less, this manipulative young lady is not finished, i could tell from the look on her face that she was just exploring and curious. Mom, let her learn from her mistakes, otherwise you are going to be shedding lots of tears and stress over your self centered spoiled daughter. peoples hearts hurt no matter what country their from:-)
